MGR Hits - Thulluvatho Illamai

This is a superhit song from the movie Kudiyiruntha Koyil starring MGR, Rajashree, Jayalalitha, Pandari Bhai, V K Ramasami, Vijayalakshmi and others. This song has been sung by TMS and L R Easwari. Next to P Susheela L R Easwari had sung several songs during that period. The music by MSV for this song seems to be inspired by some Spanish Music. This particular song features MGR and Rajashree. As mentioned in an earlier post related to another song from this movie MGR has played a dual role in this movie. Since there is no difference in make up to differentiate between the two characters, one character has a distinct mannerism (or style) to make it easy for the audience to identify that character!

MGR Hits - Aadaludan Paadalai

This is a super hit song from the movie Kudiyiruntha Kovil starring MGR (dual role), Jayalalitha and others. This song features MGR and Vijayalakshmi. The dance for this song was choreographed by Puliyoor Saroja (debut). Music for this movie was composed by the legendary M S Viswanathan. The song was sung by two other legends TMS and P Susheela. This particular song had been written by the famous poet Aalangudi Somu. A lady lyricist Roshanara Begum had written another famous song in this movie Kunguma Pottin Mangalam. The other songs had been written by Vaali except one Naan Yaar Naan Yaar, which had been written by Pulamai Pithan. This was the period when MGR had a difference of opinion with Kannadasan and hence the chance to all the other poets!
